Ok, so, uh. Can you please never stop writing The Good Wife? This is amazing. You've got the characters nailed down - I can hear their voices - and this is just. Amazing. I love this show, and I've checked out some of the stories in the "Good Wife" category, but I was always disappointed. Until now.

Seriously, I'm so thrilled that you're writing Will and Alicia. I love your Castle fanfiction, and oh, this is just so good. Such lovely writing too.

"She smiles and it is nostalgic like candied apples and state fairs." Yeah. Wow.

And that scene with younger versions of them- ack, just perfect.

"Alicia, you don't want to do this—" he's too weak to deny her anything, "I swear, it's a war you'll never win."

"You're all talk, Gardner—" she always gets mischievous when she's had one too many, "You can't take me."

Lovely. I guess just about everyone raised in the developed world for the last 50 years has a 'soundtrack' for his/her life. Your story is a great illustration of how a particular part of one's life/history can be evoked by certain songs. Time machine anyone?

Nice to see you posting here. Your skills are sorely missed on the Castle pages.
